Victories and losses are a part of a tennis player’s life! Their career consists of both parts, but sometimes, facing continuous losses can become a problem on and off the tennis court. The Danish tennis sensation, Holger Rune, has been going through a similar rough patch. Although players getting criticized and, on rare occasions, threats from angry fans are a common occurrence, Rune has had to deal with a peculiar situation. His family has become a target of malicious accounts in the tennis world.
Although the 20-year-old is giving his best, he and his family are facing a lot of flak because of his recent performances. Now his sister has found a clear way to deal with all the negative messages she has been receiving from fans.
The Danish tennis player’s sister, Alma, was subjected to social media abuse following her brother’s recent loss at the 2023 Shanghai Masters. The fifth-seeded tennis player faced a shocking upset in the first round of the tournament. This is his sixth defeat since reaching the Wimbledon quarterfinal and facing a defeat from carlos Alcaraz.
Following his dismissal, Alma was on the receiving end of continuous abuse on social media. Recently, she issued a public statement condemning the act. In addition, she also made a huge revelation regarding how she and her family were receiving threats on social media. Along with that, she also gave a warning that she would be taking the matter to the police if the abusive messages didn’t stop.
